Aura is Norway’s National Museum winner in new chair competition

“Aura is a beautiful chair that adds a seductive softness and elegance to the room where it will be used. In its design the chair has contours that point both back and forwards in time,” say Jasper Morrison who judged the competition of 10 Norwegian designers who were tasked with creating a chair that would be used in the National Museum in Oslo which opens in 2020.

Andreas Engesvik is the winning designer and creator behind Aura, a leather and steel seat. Other designers who competed include Anderssen & Voll, Atle Tveit Design, Linda Evensen Design, Hallgeir Homstvedt Design, Stine Aas Design, Morten & Jonas, Torstein Design AS, Vera & Kyte, and Johan Verde Industridesign. All presented designs will be on display at Mellomstasjonen.
